Vulnerability Assessment Of A Large Sized Power System Considering A New Index Based On Power System Loss, Ahmed M. Haidar, Azah Mohamed, Aini Hussain Dec 2012

Vulnerability Assessment Of A Large Sized Power System Considering A New Index Based On Power System Loss, Ahmed M. Haidar, Azah Mohamed, Aini Hussain

Dr Ahmed Mohamed Ahmed Haidar

The concept of power system vulnerability assessment combines information on the level of system security as well as information on a wide range of situations, events and contingencies with regards to which a system is vulnerable. This paper attempts to investigate and evaluate the effect of line outage, generation outage and amount of load disconnected on the power transmission network losses of a large size power system. These effects will be investigated and evaluated using new proposed method based on vulnerability index of power system loss. The objectives of this work is to evaluate and compare the efficiency of the …


Grounding Locations Assessment Of Practical Power System, Nadheer Shalash, Ahmed M. Haidar, Abdul Sattar Dec 2012

Grounding Locations Assessment Of Practical Power System, Nadheer Shalash, Ahmed M. Haidar, Abdul Sattar

Dr Ahmed Mohamed Ahmed Haidar

Grounding Points (GPs) are installed in electrical power system to drive protective devices and accomplish the person- nel safety. The general grounding problem is to find the optimal locations of these points so that the security and reli- ability of power system can be improved. This paper presents a practical approach to find the optimal location of GPs based on the ratios of zero sequence reactance with positive sequence reactance (X0/X1), zero sequence resistance with positive sequence reactance (R0/X1) and Ground Fault Factor (GFF). The optimal values of these indicators were deter- mined by considering several scenarios of fault disturbances …


Vulnerability Assessment Of Power System Using Radial Basis Function Neural Network And A New Feature Extraction Method, Ahmed M. Haidar, Azah Mohamed, Aini Hussain Dec 2012

Vulnerability Assessment Of Power System Using Radial Basis Function Neural Network And A New Feature Extraction Method, Ahmed M. Haidar, Azah Mohamed, Aini Hussain

Dr Ahmed Mohamed Ahmed Haidar

Vulnerability assessment in power systems is important so as to determine how vulnerable a power system in case of any unforeseen catastrophic events. This paper presents the application of Radial Basis Function Neural Network (RBFNN) for vulnerability assessment of power system incorporating a new proposed feature extraction method named as the Neural Network Weight Extraction (NNWE) for dimensionality reduction of input data. The performance of the RBFNN is compared with the Multi Layer Perceptron Neural Network (MLPNN) so as to evaluate the effectiveness of the RBFNN in assessing the vulnerability of a power system based on the indices, power system …
